Esper Harem in the Apocalypse Chapter 292 A Presence that Rivals the Lord

Chapter 292 A Presence that Rivals the Lord

"Luis… I remember you used to pee your pants and wet your bed even at the age of 70s. And now you think you have any authority to stand in my palace and call my son a liar? Not only that, but you ripped the honored scroll that was preserved for thousands of years. Leave this place in this instance, or you shall face the consequences."

"With all due respect, I had no idea about the conditions of the scroll. Maybe the Alucard family tampered with it and removed the conditions. But my proposal still remains the same," Luis said in a meek tone.

All the arrogance Luis had vanished into thin air as soon as Nyxia entered the conversation.

"I wish to marry my son with the child of the blue moon," he proposed once again.

"And I do not wish to do that." Nyxia turned around and casually uttered. "You may enjoy your stay here, but we are not having any conversation about marriage."

Luis bit his lips and glared at Nyxia for a few seconds before saying, "Why are you going against the conditions of the scroll?"

Nyxia raised her brow and turned to Luis with a furious look on her face.

"What did you say?"

"The letter said to let the bride and groom decide, so we shouldn't interfere." He smirked from the corner of his lips and continued, "Since you value the vampire culture so much, you wouldn't interfere, am I right?"

"Sure." Nyxia shrugged her shoulders and said, "Go ahead and ask her if you want to. I already know her answer, and I was simply trying to save time. After all, my time is important to me, but I don't know about yours since you are as useless and worthless as ever."

Nyxia commented with a straight face with a remorseless expression.

Luis gritted his teeth and endured his anger by taking a deep breath. Them, he turned to Jane with a smile on his face and uttered:

"What do you say, child of the blue moon? Are you interested in marrying my son? He is a prince and the only heir to my kingdom, so if you marry him, you will become the future queen."

Jane opened her mouth to reject him, but Luis didn't let her speak.

"Before you answer, do remember that you are the child of the blue moon. You are the cursed child. No one would even want to talk—no, no one would even want to look at you. Yet, I am offering you a one-in-a-million golden chance. If you let this chance slip from your hand, you will remain single forever," Luis added while smirking inwardly.

"I have no intention of marrying someone," Jane rejected instantly as soon as Luis stopped speaking.

"Wha—!" Luis was left speechless, and he couldn't comprehend why Jane would agree even though he was doing a 'favor' to her by marrying Liam with her.

'Dammit! Where did I go wrong?! Everything was perfectly planned!' Luis glanced around the hall as though he was looking for someone.

'Where did that Vesier go?! He said he would humiliate the cursed child and make her so hopeless that she would agree to marry anyone to seek love and attention. But I don't see any sign of remorse or despair on her face. She has the same haughty look on her face as this hag Nyxia!'

"Heh!" Nyxia scoffed softly and remarked, "Now, if you have any shame left in you, don't embarra.s.s yourself more and enjoy your stay here or kindly leave. I would prefer the latter one as I don't want someone to step foot in my kingdom who clearly doesn't belong here."

"I can't believe it! I thought I would be welcomed here, but I am being shunned! I came all the way to honor an old promise, but this is unfathomable. I feel insulted, and I am offended by the hospitality I received here!" Luis yelled.

"I am glad my feelings finally reached your thick skull," Nyxia smirked arrogantly.

Luis' face twitched from all the sides as he glanced back and forth between Jane and Virgil, hoping either of them to say something, but neither of them paid any heed to him.

SIGH!

He glanced at Liam and shook his head in disbelief.

'Incapable of defending his own father! I have the worst possible heir ever! Maybe I will give my throne to one of my illegitimate children when the time comes.

But still, where is that a.s.shole Vesier?! Did he double-cross me? I shouldn't have trusted him after all! Dammit!

I look like a clown standing in the middle of the three strongest vampires. However, I am not going to stay silent. One way or another, I will get my hands on the cursed child. She is essential for me to be able to—'

Luis stopped on his words when he sensed an immense pressure in the air and a murderous glare from somewhere.

'What is this feeling? It feels as if my soul is getting shredded by an invisible force!' Luis scanned the hall and panicked:

'Where is it coming from?!' He first looked at Nyxia, but she seemed normal. Then, he turned to Virgil, who was standing with a calm look on his face.

'It's not coming from these two, then who is it?! The cursed child—' He looked at Jane, whose face seemed excited and happy for some reason.

'Hmm?! Why is she making a face like that? And I don't feel that pressure coming from her. Then who is it?! I have never felt something like this in my entire life! No, wait… I have felt something similar, but this is very intense.

I have been to the Lord's summit and been in his presence three times, and my body never stopped trembling as long as he was awake. What monster could rival the presence of the Lord?!'

SIGH!

Nyxia let out a weary sigh and stared into Luis' petrified face before saying, "I advised you to leave when you had time. Now, 'he' is here."
